It's going to be Robinson
Robert J. Robinson will be Obama's VP, it's just a gut feeling, except when it's indigestion, but I feel pretty good about this one.

Robinson is the longest serving recorder of deeds in North Carolina, first elected in 1980 and still serving.

North Carolina is a key swing state that Obama has a real chance at and the Robinson name may be enough to put Obama over the top.

He's perfect because he's "not of Washington"--but of Brunswick County.

He was "outstanding Register of Deeds" for 1991-92.

Served as Secretary of the NC Association of Recorder of Deeds, 1996

Certified Notary Public

The list of accomplishment goes on...

Obama/Robinson the winning ticket.

1. It's Robinson, definitely, but not your Robinson -- FRANK Robinson.
Triple-Crown with the Orioles. Long-time Cincy Reds outfielder.

Frank's got it together.

white/upper-class/stranded-on-a-desert island vote.

16. I'd heard it would be Holly Peete Robinson.
Her father played Gordon on Sesame Street.

She's perfect.

18. Craig Robinson.
He knows how to play basketball and he isn't a Washington insider. Yeah, that's the ticket. :D

22. How about Gene Robinson from the WaPo?
He seems like a very smart guy whenever he turns up on MSNBC. He definitely has a good sense of humor.
